Simply:

  1. install 64 bit PostgreSQL ODBC driver. Such drivers have -x64 in their names, example: psqlodbc_09_03_0100-x64.zip.

  2. To test if it is working use 64 bit odbcad32.exe to create DSN and test it with "Test" button

  3. If DSN works well then you can try to use DSN less connection string.

Use something like:

Driver={PostgreSQL 64-Bit ODBC Drivers};Server=127.0.0.1;Port=5432;Database=dbname;Uid=name;Pwd=password;
